Second Investment under Share Subscription Agreement and Further Allotment of Shares
Ethernity Networks Ltd (AIM: ENET.L), a leading supplier of networking processing technology ported on FPGA (field programmable gate array) for virtualised networking appliances, announces the second tranche investment of £400,000 pursuant to the terms of the share subscription deed ("Agreement") with 5G Innovation Leaders Fund LLC ("5G Fund" or the "Subscriber"), a U.S.-based specialist investor, as announced on 25 September 2020.
5G Fund will make the investment of £400,000 in the next five days as prepayment for new ordinary NIS 0.001 shares ("Ordinary Shares") valued at £438,000. The new Ordinary Shares will be issued, at 5G Fund's request, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and application(s) to trading on AIM will be made as appropriate.
The proceeds from this second tranche investment will be used by the Company for general corporate and working capital purposes.
Allotment of Shares
Separately, the Subscriber has requested that the Company issue 826,087 Ordinary Shares to the Subscriber, in relation to the purchase price of £190,000 which was prepaid by the Subscriber in the first tranche of its investment as announced on 25 September 2020. Accordingly, the Company will issue and allot 826,087 new Ordinary Shares to the Subscriber. Following this settlement notice a balance of £107,000 remains subscribed but unissued under the first tranche investment.
Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for 826,087 new Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission") and Admission is expected to occur on or around 7 January 2021. The new Ordinary Shares will, upon issue, rank pari passu with the existing Ordinary Shares in the Company.
Total voting rights
Following Admission, the Company's enlarged issued share capital will be 47,773,497 Ordinary Shares. The Company holds no Ordinary Shares in Treasury. This figure of 47,773,497 Ordinary Shares may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change in their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
